A decade after his death, genre-defying filmmaker William Greaves has one last trick up his sleeve with what he considered the most important event he captured on film: a 1972 party he engineered with the living luminaries of the Harlem Renaissance.“It’s the way that Greaves gives you a true portrait of a community, and lets you eavesdrop on their bickering and airing of grievances as well as their mutual admiration and gratitude. A masterpiece, this.” – Rolling Stone
“Once Upon a Time in Harlem is the rare archival documentary that does more than just preserve the past—it revives it.” – Awards Watch
“A time capsule, history lesson, and heady hangout movie all rolled into one, it’s an invigorated portrait of radical change as the byproduct of art, politics, and roiling intellectual debate.” – The Daily Beast
